Good vibrations: Using piezoelectricity to ensure hydrogen sensor sensitivity

Researchers have developed a new method that uses piezoelectric resonance to improve the manufacture of highly sensitive hydrogen sensors. By optimizing the gaps between palladium nanoparticles in the devices, they were able to increase the sensitivity by a factor of 12 over palladium nanoparticles fabricated by previous methods. The work in this study is important for the development of new sensing devices that are capable of detecting hydrogen at low concentration. from Top Technology News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/05/190522120609.htm

Stellar waltz with dramatic ending

Astronomers have identified an unusual celestial object. It is most likely the product of the fusion of two stars that died a long time ago. After billions of years circling around each other these so-called white dwarfs merged and rose from the dead. In the near future, their lives could finally end -- with a huge bang. from All Top News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/05/190521124538.htm

Strain enables new applications of 2D materials

Superconductors' never-ending flow of electrical current could provide new options for energy storage and superefficient electrical transmission and generation. But the signature zero electrical resistance of superconductors is reached only below a certain critical temperature and is very expensive to achieve. Physicists believe they've found a way to manipulate superthin, waferlike monolayers of superconductors, thus changing the material's properties to create new artificial materials for future devices. from Top Technology News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/05/190521162428.htm
